What's your opinon on Harley riders?

[Prime Ang]

Think they are cool? Bad ass guys?

Or do you think most of them are just kind of disgusting white trash? Or possibly putting on a macho man tough guy act to hide their insecurites and possbile homosexuality?

True that.


To answer the question I think Harley riders are a little douchey and snobby tbh. It's mostly middle aged dudes trying to regain their youth.

 

[Dogstarman]

I said Ghey but honestly I don't think they are ghey. It's just that some of those dudes are wannabe bad asses. Some like real bikers would probably stab me in the back but some of those guys want to be Sons of Anarchy so bad it's funny.

I like some of the bikes and I like guys who make their own choppers but some of these rich harley guys piss me off.

 

[Sauce Castillo]

nothing personal against them, just find them loud, annoying and obnoxious.

Only good thing about winter is the lack of harley riders on the roads.

 

[IndyCovaHart]

The bikes are bad ass but too many seem to think they add inches to their dick.

 

[MarkyMcFly]

HUUUUUGE penises, all of us.

Compared to what, rocket riders that think weaving in and out of traffic like some action star makes them badass?

I will say this...I like my loud pipes.

They do not, in fact, saves lives though. Lamo, these people do not understand physics or how sound works, in any way.

 

[MarkyMcFly]

Also, every big ride that I've ever been apart of...every single dime of the proceeds has gone to a charitable cause.

I ride a Harley, and I'm building a $50,000 Harley chopper from scratch. Like anything else, it's a mixed bag.

You've got the hardcore, rough guys that live the lifestyle and aren't afraid to get in trouble with the law. I steer clear of these guys.

You've got the yuppies, doctors and lawyers that like to put on their nice, clean, undistressed leathers and ride only on the weekends when it's sunny and pretend they are badass bikers.

Then you've got the Sons of Anarchy douchebags that like to pose as outlaws.

Then you've got the guys that just love the brand, and love to ride. I love Harley's, and I like a bunch of other types of bikes too (cafe racers, certain exotic sport bikes, etc.) but I can't see myself owning anything other than a Harley. I love how you can customize everything on the bike to make it your own (gas tank, handlebars, seat, pipes, etc.). The bike is an extension of myself.

Unlike a sportbike which you can do, what? Put a longer swingarm, fat tire, crash pegs and slap a stupid Yoshimura sticker on the fart can muffler?

If anything, I hate the douchebag sport bike riders that pop wheelies and shit in the streets, and weave in and out of lanes, cutting other cars and bikes off dangerously. Fuck those guys. They give the rest of us riders a bad name.

I never cared for Harleys or any kind of bikes until a few years ago when I had this job where I'd have to give customers rides home every so often. Well I had to give this guy a ride to his place and back so when he got to his place he told me to come in and grab something to drink. On the way out, we walked through his garage and he had this bike sitting there in the corner and my jaw just dropped. I never gave a shit about bikes until I saw that one. He could tell I was interested so he started telling me all about it. It was a 57 Harley Panhead bobber that he had been fixing up. No suspension on it at all except for the two springs under the seat. That thing was stripped down to just an engine and frame and looked so bad ass. At that point I was like damn if I ever get a bike it's going to be something like that. It was similar to the one in the picture except this one was all black and had mini ape hangers on it.

 

[PG29 red0 Jr]

Bikes are fun, I have no problem with people riding them.

 

[Iroh]

Total badasses

 

[Leklok]

My opinion on harley riders is that they are insecure attention seekers that bought into the marketing that riding a harley will make then cool. I strongly dislike motorcyclists, especially harley riders and I take every chance I get to cut them off in traffic. Their reactions are priceless lol

 

[BisexualMMA]

Anybody that puts their desire to have a loud vehicle over the integrity of my eardrums can fuck off.

 

[mjmj]

There are all sorts of Harley riders. From feminine yuppy pussies, to 1 percenters.

I used to be pretty indifferent to motorcycles too for most of my life. I thought that they only fell in one of two categories; the cookie cutter bland Jap sport bikes, or the big cruisers loaded down with saddlebags, windshields, and tons of leather fringe. I hated both kinds of bikes so I didn't care about owning one myself.

Then I saw this show about choppers (Biker Build Off) back in 2004, and it changed my life when I laid eyes on this exact beauty:



A clean, simple, no-frills, no bullshit bike. Just two wheels, a seat and an engine. I saw that and it just resonated with me. Everything about my beliefs (function over form, etc.) and thought to myself, "Wow. I could see myself riding something like that."

And that's what started me on what has now become my lifelong journey. I went to school for welding and machining, and moved across the country to California to get a job at a motorcycle shop building custom bikes. I'm actually going to try to land a job at the shop that built the above bike, and plan to eventually start my own company, making custom parts and clothing. Choppers for Life.
